Aluminum is the most versatile metal for spinning. Almost any shape can be made. We have vast experience in spinning many types and alloys of aluminum; 1100 series, 5052, 3003, and 6061 are among the most common. Aluminum offers great flexibility in gauges also. We can make spinnings from .020 thick all the way to .156 thick. Certain types of aluminum can also be heat-treated to different hardnesses. This is very useful when strength is needed and the shape prohibits the use of other materials. American Metal Spinning has many techniques to make just about any shape possible; whether it is a deep spun part, a cone shape, a large dish shape, hemispheres or shapes that return on themselves. Some of the items that we are currently manufacturing include commercial lighting fixtures, commercial cookware, close tolerance shields and covers for the power industry, high performance car parts, duct and ventilation venturies. As you can see, aluminum spinnings can be incorporated into most designs. Aluminum is lightweight, anodizes well, has great weldibility. Aluminum is a cost effective way to produce any metal spinnings you may require. Give us a call - we will gladly discuss your designs and see if aluminum is the right material for your next job.
